You should read the scripture: "whom I shall send to you FROM THE FATHER, even the Spirit of Truth, who proceeds FROM THE FATHER, he shall bear witness to me"

And then there is that other small matter of the anethemas placed on anyone who adds or takes away from the Creed, placed by the Ecumenical Councils.......Even a joint Orthodox-Catholic Committee has ruled that the filioque should not be in the creed. When the Ecumenical Patriarch & Pope John Paul II celebrated Mass, the Filioque was not used. Read the Creed on the doors of St. Peter's Basilica, NO filioque there either.
